vasiMn Threat Causes
Nais Great Anxiety
TXM threatened Allied Invasion of
Europe ontnum to hold first place
In German propaganda, which now aims
at convincing the German people and
toM of the wavering satellite states
that the Wehrmacht Is quite capable of
successully taking care of any Allied
attempt to land troops on the beleaguered
fortress. But quite contrary to what Dr.
qoebbels would have the German people
believe, there is no anxiety among the
Allies about the Invasion. Hitler's
threatened landing in Britain after the
fall of France never came; but with the
Initiative in determined Anglo-American
hands,. Hitler knows he has no hope of
enJoying such good fortune as did Bri-
tain when his 1940 plans were foiled
*cee for all.
Hitler talked about invasion, but was
not able even to attempt It. Now he
knows only too well that the Allies will
Invade, and he has no cause to be
anxious that they will not do so. The
cause of his anxiety is that he does not
know precisely when or where the blow
will be struck, though the time for
action was decided as long ago as Teheran
and all the signs Indicate that It Is fast
approaching. It is for this reason-be-
eause the enemy does not know-that
there are so many signs of tension from
Germany and the German-occupied
countries, both directly and through the
neutral states. The game of guessing the
Invasion date is the natural consequence
of the fear of disaster which the tre-
mendous, sustained Allied air offensive
has created in the mind of the enemy.
The German Mpeople must long since
have grown tired of repeated promises of
surprise weapons which have not mate-
rialised. The Nazi propagandists, never-
theless, are asking them to believe once
more that Hitler has numerous surprises
In store for the invasion armies, should
they succeed in setting foot on the west-
ern shores of his fortress. Rather than
accept promises they no doubt prefer to
wait for events to take their course,
though previous German failures, con-
tinued Allied successes, and evidence of
growing Allied power give them no hope
that the Anglo-American land assault
can be turned back.
On the Allied side there is every con-
fidence that the biggest amphibian oper-
ation in world history will succeed,
though there is no underrating of Ger-
man military power and no doubt that
the enemy has prepared formidable de-
fences to meet a long-expected attack.

Imperial College Begins
Local Nutrition Research
THE decision of the Imperial College of
Tropical Agriculture to develop a
research laboratory for the study of
West Indian nutrition problems is of
great interest and importance. Dr. John
Duckworth, who recently joined the
College staff and is in charge of this
work, is a recognized nutrition expert of
wide experience, and the West Indies are
fortunate to have his services. While the
results of this research will no doubt be
of application outside the Caribbean, this
is a case in which the Imperial College is
engaging in activities which will in the
first place be of particular local value.
The decision shows the College to be
wide awake to the needs of these times.
West Indian nutrition problems have
long called for investigation, but the war
situation with its demands for greater
self-sufficiency and the production of
foods which will correct diet deficiency
has accentuated the need. While research
is not expected to solve immediate diffi-
culties, which must be tackled by the
Governments and peoples of these Col-
onies on the basis of knowledge already
at their disposal, it will set the stage for
later advance beyond the preliminary
steps, as it were, which are now possible.
It should in the long run help to correct
mistakes and point out new measures to
be taken in the interest of better health.
Dr. Duckworth's work here will no
doubt develop in the light of conditions.
His past experience, which includes
laboratory studies in connection with the
problem of correlating food production
with population needs, and surveys of
diets of workers and school-children, may
suggest some of the lines on which he
will proceed. Nutrition research fits i)to
the general pattern of advance to higher
diet levels which has become a West In-
dian ideal, and which was the subject of
a report by a sub-committee of the West
Indian Conference in Barbados recently.
The report, which was adopted by the
Conference, recommended that the
Caribbean Research Council should place
special emphasis on developing and
adapting foods of high nutritional and
protective value, and urged West Indian
Governments to concentrate on produc-
ing those rich In proteins, vitamins, and
minerals,
The nutrition problem is closely
linked with wage levels, which in turn
depend in normal times very largely on
an assurance of remunerative returns for
export crops. When the President of the
Chamber of Commerce said in his an-
nual address that no opportunity should
be lost to press for a solution of the lat-
ter problem, he put his finger on the
pulse of much of the maladjustments
which afflict the West Indies.

of tolerance. I have examined it
micrspically and I have failed
I find anything sinister or any
of the morbid bacteria of a totali-
Starian dictatorship.
"I am afraid we are looking at
the question from a wrong pers-
pective. It is not a question of
abolishing religion from the schools
or creating godless institutions or
preventing the children of Catho-
ics from being educated u Chris-
tians. It is not a question of
depriving the children of the In-
fluence of the churches. It is
purely a question of greater con-
trol by Government.
"According to section 52, Gov-
ernment pays the salaries of the
teachers, makes grants for build-
ings and furniture, pays the water
rates, provides apparatus and
equipment, together with books
and garden and handicraft tools.
Milk is supplied free of charge to
all schools in the city for under-
nourished children. Transporta-
tion is provided for children to
centres.
"In consideration of all these
valuable services, would it be fair
to deny Government of the prero-
gative which is justly theirs? If
Government is competent enough
to control the appointments of the
entire Civil Service of the Colony,
then Government is certainly com-
petent enough to control the ap-
pointment of teachers,
"So that Government may be in
a position to act justly and equi-
tably there must be a centralized
government to appoint the correct
type of teachers with certain train-
ing in certain areas. If our aye-
tern of education Is to provide
every opportunity for all, it can.
not be confined to the limit of
sectarianism.
"It is being urged that Govern-
ment is only a trustee of public
moneys which should be allocated
distributively. This is a statement
which I agree with, but the Bri.i
tish conception of the State is that
it is a living personality wtWe
conscience Is not devoid of righ-
teousness, Justice, equity and fair-
play. I do not believe for a single
moment that our Government is so
irresponsible, corrupt or immoral
that it will destroy the spiritual
lives of its children, for to do so,
it will be courting disaster.
TEACHERS DISSATISFIED

"Teachers, who are the ones this
motion will affect, are the ones
clamouring mort for the change.
They feel they are not being given
a square deal, as religion, and not
efficiency and ability, is the de.
aiding factor in their progress.
These are the people in whose
hands rest& the destiny of the na-
tion. They are dissatisfied and it
is contrary to human nature to
expect the best service from dis-
satisfied workers,
"We must hasten to put right
that which is wrong in our assist-
ed system of education. I concede
it is the duty of the Church to
attend to the spiritual needs of
the people and to look after their
moral welfare, but to stand in the
way of educational progress Is a
crime.'
In conclusion he said: -I want to
take this opportunity to acknow-
ldle how greatlyv Government is
indebted to tht various denomina-
tons for their contribution in the
field of education: but at the same
time we also have to acknowledge
that a dual system has outlived
Its usefulness.
"I am confident that when we
come to take a vote in this matter,
that religion will not prevent us
from coming to a Just decision."
MOMXNTO1'S QUESTION
The Rev. K. R. Bhagan voicing
opposition to the motion said:;
'ibe question which we are called
upon to discuss and to advise upon
is, without doubt, one of the most
momentous in the history of edu-
cation in *this Colony. It affects,
certainly, the whole future of our
Church schools. Our decision will
shape the course of education for
generations to come. That is why
we ought to weigh well and w.cly
whatever we do. To act hastily or
with little thought; or to be movedI
by expediency and not by princi-
pie, to act with detriment to
posterity.
Let me say at once that I stand
for tkit principle which is deep-
rooted in the history of our de-
nominational system of education-
the unquestionable right of the
churches to appoint their teachers,
which right Is so necessary for the
exercise of their infuence In the
school, which they with mush lI-
bour have begotten. I am eo-
vinctd that If those Church acmhoob
Are to continue to serve the pr-
pos for which they were but
they couMld only do so so long as
the churches retain the power to
appoint their teachers to these

Two despatch riders headed the
parade which was under command
of Captain L. A. Seller. They were
followed by the band. Then came
the signal section equipped with
both the new short range wireless
transmitters and flag sigallers
followed by a Commando detach-
ment equipped for Jungle warfare.
Behind were the infantry platoons
wearing the everyday fighting
equipment. Then came the ma-
chine gun truck as used for static
defence, then the anti-aircraft gun
as used by the Royal Artillery, then
the two-inch mortar section fol-
lowed by several of the typical
troop carrying vehicles and the
military ambulance.
All the troops apart from the
band and anti-aircraft crew were
from the First Battalion.
"Never before have the Inhabi-
tants of San Fernando had the pri-
vilege and pleasure of witnessing
so grand a military display," said

great tradition of service to their
country.
"This demonstration is silently
but eloquently calling the young
men of San Fernando to duty," Mr.
Roodal went on. It was a duty, he
declared, which they all owed
